Chapter 75 -75 Encountering Danger_1
“Ye Ge?” Once Ye Ge was brought up, Nan Feng immediately transformed from a strong elder sister back into a little girl, her voice dropped a few octaves, “I heard he had something to do and had to leave the village for a few days.
But I have no idea where he’s gone specifically.”
Fat Yat asked, “He didn’t tell you where he was going?
I see you guys are quite close, always going hunting together on the mountain.
People are saying you stuck with Ye Ge.”
Aqiu slapped Fat Yat and then said, “You see how spirited Nan Feng is on the mountain, you should know she doesn’t rely on Ye Ge.”
Nan Feng nodded, “That’s right.
Ye Ge and I are not as close as you guys think.
We are just ordinary friends, similar to how I am with you guys.
so stop guessing and spreading rumors.
if Ye Ge doesn’t want me because of all this talk, wouldn’t I be left unmarriageable?”
As she spoke these words, she couldn’t help harboring a little resentment towards Ye Ge for only seeing her as a friend.
And, not telling her where he’s going now, obviously has created distance between them.
…
Hearing that Aqiu, and the others have made money by following Nan Feng, a few more village girls came to Nan Feng’s help in finding medicinal herbs.
Nan Feng welcomed them all.
Zhou Dongdong came too.
At first, Zhou Dongdong didn’t intend to come, as she had some prejudices against Nan Feng.
Firstly, she disliked Nan Feng for stealing the limelight in local folk singing; secondly, as the daughter of Zhou Lao Da, she naturally disliked Nan Feng as Nan Feng was frequently seen with Ye Ge who was not liked by Zhou Lao Da’s family.
But after seeing Aqiu and others buying new clothes, Zhou Dongdong couldn’t help but feel jealous.
After a struggle within her, she decided to come.
Nan Feng didn’t mind Zhou Dongdong’s petty mind at all.
She didn’t refuse any girl who wanted to join.
But finding the medicinal herbs is hard work.
Many girls couldn’t bear it after a single day of work, and several left.
Only Aqiu, Zhou Dongdong, and Fat Yat remained.
These girls worked harder after tasting the sweet fruits of their labor.
On the mountain.
They had particularly bad luck today.
Nan Feng searched all day and only found two wild yams, and the other girls didn’t fare much better.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Nan Feng had to remind the girls that it was time to descend the mountain.
But the girls gathered together, with Fat Yat nowhere to be seen.
Then they spread out to search for her, and found her sleeping in a tree crotch.
Fat Yat had climbed into the tree to sleep when she was dozy in the afternoon and was still sleeping deeply.
Fat Yat showed a face of regret, but Nan Feng did not scold her, only instructed everyone to hurry down the mountain.
For some reason, Nan Feng felt things didn’t go smoothly and had a premonition that something was about to happen.
On the way down the mountain, Nan Feng was extremely cautious.
Sure enough, before they reached the foot of the mountain, a figure suddenly dashed towards them from the front, frightening the girls into retreating.
When they saw it was Wang Dachuan, a well-known rogue in the village, the girls were even more terrified.
Wang Dachuan was fond of harassing the widows in the village.
He was a notorious lecher and had a thick skin.
If anyone dared to criticize him, he would take it out on them behind their backs.
No one in the village could do anything about him.
Nan Feng was standing in front, and the girls behind her didn’t know what to do.
There was only one mountain road and they could either walk uphill or downhill.
The downhill road was already blocked by Wang Dachuan.
Once night fell, there would be wild animals prowling on the mountain.
Both uphill and downhill, were perilous.
Meanwhile, Wang Dachuan’s eyes were lecherously fixed on Zhou Dongdong behind Nan Feng.
He was even holding a hatchet in his hand.
Nan Feng also had a hatchet.
She pretended not to know Wang Dachuan’s intentions.
She first shook her hatchet, and then asked Wang Dachuan, “Could you please make way?
We want to get down the mountain.”
Wang Dachuan smugly said, “Make way?
Where are you girls going?”
